The other day my power steering decided it no longer wanted any oil, so emptied itself on a Supermarket car park.

The car is undriveable and needs recovery, yet the RAC won't take my word for this and are still sending someone out to try and fix the problem, before being recovered to a garage. I find that annoying! Smiley

The road markings at J16 of the M4. When you come from Swindon, the lanes are marked W'ton for Wroughton and Woot for Bassett (or something like that) and you always get some cunt in the wrong lane there. And coming off the M4 Eastbound going round to Wroughton or Bassett, the lane markings are totally wrong. I drive over that roundabout most days, and have done for the last 3 years at least, and it STILL pisses me off.  Angry

The last few hundred metres of the A350 past Chippenham Golf Club being single lane.

Why buying 100 Twinings Assam Tea Bags in Costco costs more (a lot more) than the supermarket just because they have tags on.

You should try and drive a lorry round it...total joke and they will wait till someone gets killed or maimed,then they will change it.

Drove road past the fire station onto the magic. When I was younger I'm sure there were arrows marked on the road for 2 lanes onto Queens drive. Now there seems to be only one lane (far right) to go down Queens Drive and if you get in the middle lane to go onto Queens Drive you just get cut up.

Adding to the indicating thing - people who don't indicate when going around a roundabout but indicate to exit it.

Those large electronic signs, when previously remaining out of use 99% for the time, now sport useless information. "Think Bike", "Tiredness Kills", "Swindon 21 miles, time 10.5 minutes."

120mph average. Could you blame the sign if you were stopped for speeding?

There's very little in this thread which is in the spirit of the first post mind, most of the stuff is with logic or decent rationale. For example the aforementioned Go Compare advert is clearly annoying.

A better one would be people who start every word in a sentence with a capital letter because it defies logical reasoning.

White middle-class kid next door with dreadlocks who plays Jack Johnson CD's in the garden for hours.

I prefer the threads evolution into a thread of venting.

Why does the word "lisp" have an "s" in it?  This has always annoyed me - and no, I don't.  It just seems cruel.
